This document describes an LC oscillator circuit using a BJT in common base configuration. The theoretical frequency for an LC circuit with an inductor of 500uH and capacitor of 200pF is calculated to be 503.292kHz, while the actual calculated frequency is 400kHz. For maximum frequency with least distortion, the theoretical frequency with the same inductor and capacitor values is calculated to be 1.62437MHz, while the actual calculated frequency is 1.033MHz.
